Matiang’i strengthens Jubilee grassroots with Narok office launch
By Mustafa Juma, March 17, 2026Jubilee Party Deputy Leader Fred Matiang’i has intensified efforts to rebuild the party’s grassroots network with the official opening of a new county office in Narok County ahead of the 2027 general election.
Matiang’i, who has declared his interest in the presidency, presided over the launch alongside a host of Jubilee leaders.
Taking to his official X account on Tuesday, March 17, 2026, Matiang’i described the move as part of a broader strategy to reconnect with ordinary Kenyans and re-energise the party’s base across the country.
He framed the initiative as people-driven, insisting that meaningful change must originate from local communities rather than top-down directives.
“This morning, alongside fellow Jubilee leaders, I had the honor of officially opening our Narok County Jubilee office. Our journey to fix this country is anchored at the grassroots, where the true voice of the people lives. We are strengthening our structures, deepening our presence, and building a movement that reflects the hopes, aspirations, and dignity of every Kenyan,” Matiang’i stated.
Revamping Jubilee structures
The opening of the Narok office marks a significant step in Jubilee’s ongoing reorganisation, as the party seeks to regain political footing after its loss of power in the 2022 elections.
Narok, a politically strategic region in the Rift Valley, offers an opportunity for Jubilee to expand its influence beyond its traditional strongholds.
The party has, in recent months, embarked on a nationwide drive to revamp its structures, recruit new members, and strengthen its presence at the ward and constituency levels.
The Narok office is expected to serve as a coordination hub for party activities in the region, including mobilisation, outreach, and policy engagement.
Samburu office
This comes days after Matiang’i concluded his tour of Samburu County, where he met with the grassroots leaders in a strategic push to popularise the outfit.
Confirming his visit to Samburu via his social media handles on Monday, March 2, 2026, Matiang’i emphasised to the local leaders the need to re-establish party structures at the grassroots level, which should include strong local networks to ensure that Jubilee regains its national presence.
“Arrived in Samburu County for a crucial grassroots leaders’ meeting ahead of the official opening of our Jubilee office. The journey to fix our nation begins at the grassroots. Together under the Jubilee banner, we are ready,” Matiangi stated.
Matiang’i also opened a regional office in Samburu, meant to be a centre of coordination of party activities, recruiting members and developing leaders in the region.
